Engine grill

As typical with GS engine cowls, the grill was damaged. On this cowl, the grill was cut out and replaced with one out of another scooter. Check out how the slats don't form a parallelegram. The lower three slats are too short at both the front and the rear.
The plan is to cut out the slats to the correct length. If that doesn't work well. I'll need to find another donor cowl with similar slats and weld the set in. Other than the slats, the cowls are straightening up nicely. I've done initial shaping, but still need to get them stripped.
